Let's not draw conclusions yet !!! Let's wait for the autopsy to be performed. If she was strangled and mutilated. Then we have a killer or weird many on the loose. But if this woman was a drug user/ abuser let7s wait and see.
Sometimes heart attacks happen when having intercourse.
Kinky intercourse or whatever let's wait and see.

" Let's think 100% electric cars people. " It's not a dream it can happen. Toyota has been dominating the market for at least 20 years.
" America’s Consumer Reports magazine lowered Toyota’s rankings on its authoritative annual car-quality surveys. " I've been reading this magzine for a long time. Always Toyot comes out on top.
I'm a young man, but I have been reading Consumer Report's for two decades. And I have never seen Toyota take a big hit like this before.
Chrysler and Buick they are the most ugliest cars in the world and they still keep going ???? How can this be ??? So I know Toyota will survive. Until Chinese start making nice cars. Which will take about 40-50 years in the future to accomplish.

It's a nice park. It's very sad it is being used as a refugee center !!! I guess making homelesss shelters is not top priority in japan still.
I refused to go shopping and looking for discounts. I rather save my money. Since I work for a private company in japan. And the first people to go is the foreigners. I have to watch the news closely. Especially when the television happy new year coveage ends. And they bring us back to reality again that the global recession is alot worse then everybody is talking about.

That's gruesome and scary ! ! They probably didn't want the birds and other animals eatting it. So they covered it up with cardboard.
I guess love is really blind in her eyes. She cared about the boyfriend to much she didn't care if her baby lived or died ! Scary

Would you let your airline pilot smoke pot before piloting your airplane for takeoff and landing ? Anybody who say it's harmless really do not know what they are saying. Pot smoking can be dangerous when your operating machinery, driving a vehicle/motorcycle.

Ford owns alot of shares not just Mazada, but Honda,Nissan and Suzuki. They also have a tight fist on European cars except Ferrari and BMW. Ford owns/controls to much. it's an monopoly!!! They should not get a blank check or anything. They will not make an Electric car/ or new inventions. They want things just like it was. They don't want change. Let them go bankrupt !!!!

Re-Title This: NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE IN CRISIS I am scared of going to Japanese Hospitals. Not because of verbal communication. But I believe I will not get the adequate care. All foreigners that pay National Health Insurance monthly. If you think about it? That's alot of cash. That's alot of ( hard working foreigners ) especially in Honshu. Why can't they change their standards ?? Who is pocketing all the money ? Where is all this money going ? They need a drastic change quickly. Alot of baby boomers and alot of older generations are retiring now. Where are these senior citizens supposed to go ? I'm a temporary worker. The fees I pay are tooooooooo HIGH. I have never went to hospital in 3 years except for physical exam ,that my company requires me to get and I have to pay that out of my own pocket. Also my health insurance doesn't cover physical exams. My health insurance doesn't cover that. I guarantee if i get hit by a car and get paralized I have to pay out of my pocket.

A Japanese version of Obama ? That's funny !!! Oh, that is a good joke. It will never happen !!! Unless the people can vote for the candiate. Power to the people. Giving voting power to Japanes citizens will help Japan very much. The diet has to much control. " Obama’s election, he suggests, is a liberation in its own right, “people power” American-style. " Give Power To The People! " This will never happen in Japan. Power to the People!!!!
